COURSE DESCRIPTION:
The Half-Marathon starts in Kincaid Park inside the ConocoPhillips Soccer Stadium. Racers will head east, out of the park on the main road. (Note: one lane will be closed for racers, significantly affecting traffic in and out of Kincaid Park) 

At about mile 1.5 the course turns west via the multi-use paved trail to return to the Kincaid Chalet area, where you prepare to head downhill on the trail following the same route as the full marathon. The course meanders downhill through a cottonwood forest to the Tony Knowles Coastal Trail, following along the Cook Inlet with breathtaking views of the Alaska Range. If you are lucky, you may see beluga whales bobbing in the water.

At about mile 12.5 the route heads north on N Street. Here, runners hit the home stretch and race through Anchorage's oldest neighborhood. The course finishes at Delaney Park Strip in downtown.
